Liberation of Taiwan” is a term used in the People's Republic of China to garner public opinion for cross-Strait unification with Taiwan, proposing the use of military force to achieve it.

Background

In 1956, Mao Zedong first introduced the loaded term "Liberation of Taiwan," which was construed to mean a "peaceful" way to reunify with Taiwan. Despite this the government had numerous long-term military confrontations with Taiwan. The Chinese Communist Party has set the unification of China as the most important political goal since the founding of the People’s Republic of China.

In January 1979, the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress issued a notice to "compatriots" in Taiwan, which posited China's reunification as the inevitable future. Since then, the People’s Republic of China’s policy has been changed to One country, two systems, but it has not promised to give up the use of force to conquer Taiwan. In 2019, Xi Jinping proposed peaceful reunification based on the one country, two systems program. The government of the Republic of China led by President Tsai Ing-wen has rejected the proposal.

Extremist views

The most radical extremist platform, popularized on social media after the 2016 election of Tsai Ing-wen, calls for the genocide of all residents of Taiwan, which was subsequently modified to a version that calls for singer Jay Chou to be exempt from the genocide. There is no evidence that this policy is held by the People's Liberation Army or the majority of Chinese citizens.(simplified Chinese: 留岛不留人; traditional Chinese: 留島不留人; pinyin: liú dǎo bù liú rén; lit. 'leave island not leave people'),
